- UDC AND KENNESAW HOUSE
The Kennesaw Chapter United Daughters
of the Confederacy was organized July 29, 1898, in the parlors
of the Kennesaw House on the second floor corner nearest the
railroad station. Mrs. R. L. Nesbitt was elected the first president.
There were forty women at the meeting. The nucleus of this chapter
was the Ladies Memorial Association, formed soon after the close
of the war. The nucleus of that association was the Ladies Aid,
who had served the armies and soldiers of the Confederacy in
field and in camp.
